The purpose of this study is to develop four scales called SRC I, SRC II, MC I and MC II in order to investigate a relation among the development of preschoolers' self-regulatory behavior, their temperament types defined by Thomas, et al., and their mothers' control types. SRC I scale consisting of 60 items about self-regulation and their temperament, and MC I scale consisting of 65 items about mothers' control were tested to 1375 mothers. SRC II and MC II scale consisting of each 46 items were tested to 331 mothers. Then, factor analysis was applied to the 4 scales, and factor scores were calculated to diaguose the preschoolers' self-regulation types and their mothers' control types. Mothers were divided into 3 groups (H・M・L) by a quartile range. The structure of SRC scale were explained by the following factors ; "Utype" yielded three theoretical factors self-inhibition, self-assertion and difficulty ; "J type" yielded three practical factors based on their mothers' developmental expectancy, troublesomeness, obedience and willfulness. The structure of MC scale can be explained by 3 factors, which can be called as external control, self-education and insensitive control. As to the relation between SRC and MC scale, even if self-regulation type classified by U type factors is the same, we obsered types classified by J type factors to be different due to their mothers' control types.
